Many types. Epoxy is a place to start, but hard to recommend without specific use.

I use West System Six10 Epoxy in the tube for many applications, but not all applications.

What you doin’?

Bonding a fiberglass hood baffle/support to a 67 BB hood. Fiberglass to fiberglass.

vette panel adhesive. but usually large quantities. i think JB weld or JB quik will do the trick. it holds my plastic swimming pool pump body together for 10 years at a time. and epoxy doesnt do well on plastic. do you have a way to clamp or weight it together for several hours?

Can’t comment on the other recommendations. I am sure they are good also. I know the epoxy I mention above would do that. I have bonded numerous fiberglass to fiberglass, wood to fiberglass, wood to wood, steel to steel, plastics, and on with the Six10 epoxy. Cured color is sort of a cream-light brown and it cures hard as a rock. Good luck.

the one-minute squirt tube stuff will probably do the job also. but that is generally saved for small stuff that you have to hold until t starts to set...
